Dear ,

Surface Measurement Systems in conjunction with ATA Scientific are pleased to invite you to our FREE seminar on "Advances in particulate materials characterisation using sorption probes" by Dr. Daryl Williams.

This talk will review the applications and successes of sorption based approaches for materials characterisation. We will discuss the principles of inverse Gas Chromatography (iGC) and Dynamic Vapour Sorption (DVS) techniques and the properties that can be measured. The benefits of DVS and iGC will be discussed and compared to other known techniques such as contact angle and AFM. Further advances and developments will be illustrated including the recent hyphenation of DVS with both Raman spectroscopy and video microscopy.

Participation is FREE of charge however it is essential to register. Follow the links below or fill in the form at the ATA Scientific website.

The presentation will be divided into two 45min sessions, with a break in the middle for tea/coffee and refreshments.

Dr. Daryl R. Williams, graduated with a B.Sc. (Hons) from University of Melbourne, Australia and a M.Sc. in Polymer Science from Lehigh University, USA. After completing his PhD in Composite Interfaces at the Imperial College London he was appointed an EPSRC Advanced Research Fellow. He was subsequently appointed a Senior Lecturer in Chemical Engineering in Imperial College London and is currently the Director of the Discovery Space and a Reader in Particle Science.

Daryl has published over 70 papers in refereed journals and been granted international 5 patents. He is the founder of Surface Measurement Systems Ltd (SMS) and inventor of the Dynamic Vapour Sorption method. SMS is the technological market leader in advanced vapour sorption instruments for materials characterisation.

His research interests include the surface and bulk characterisation of complex organic solids, including especially bio-pharmaceutics, as well as their manufacture using spray drying, crystallisation, freeze drying, milling and granulation. His work also includes an important focus on novel and new instrumentation for materials characterisation. His research work has been sponsored by major industrial companies and government organisations including EPSRC, BBSRC, Pfizer, Astra-Zeneca, Kellogg’s, Unilever, P&G, Avecia and GSK.
